Why Federal Reserve Bankers Should be Arrested for Corruption

The Socialist Program with Brian Becker

On today's episode Brian and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss how the Federal Reserve has been forced to announce new ethics rules after a scandal over financial trading conducted by high-ranking officials led to the resignation of two regional bank presidents. But will this really prevent Fed officials from using their positions of power to get rich?
